What travelers are saying
- Edward d68 contributionsLa Tigra is less than an hour from the capital of Honduras, Tegucigalpa, and is absolutely amazing. At an altitude of over 5,000 feet it is cool and often shrouded in mists near the top. The trails are perfect for walking and for the most part are well marked but because it is so large a guide is recommended and very inexpensive. This is old growth cloud forest with a huge variety of plants, flowers, orchids and wildlife. It particularly is a birders paradise. Spend the day. It is well worth it!Written January 5, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Moises SASydney, Australia14 contributionsExcellent place to spend a journey! Maybe, it needs more public transportation, so more people and tourists can visit it.
Ticket prices are fair and the place is secure. Just bring your own food because you might not find anything good to eat. However, there are several places that offer good coffee. So you will be fine with that part!Written June 18, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Had a nice young man as my guide who could speak some English. There are not a lot of exhibits but enough for me. The interactive media presentations were very good. Especially the little theater which had several videos on history (in Spanish). The one I saw on the creation story as found in the Copan ruins was really neatWritten January 27, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Victor Edgardo DTegucigalpa, Honduras50 contributionsIt’s well located, it has stores, a supermarket, financial area and plenty of parking, that you have to pay. There is a food-court with plenty of fast food places! It also has a cinema area in the third level. It a place to gather with friends in one of several coffee shops. If you stay in the Intercontinental Hotel is across the street! Secure and big!! I don’t like to pay for parking in a mall but...Written March 19, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- Myo MCoquitlam, Canada27,395 contributionsWith quite a bit of "gold glitters" inside (on the main altar & also on the two big shrines or secondary altars on the two sides near the main altar), this main cathedral of the city for me was actually kind of a "refreshing reminder" of those visited in South America (just more in common with similar glittering interiors of the main cathedrals of the countries much further down south than the interiors of those in the countries immediately to the south which despite their spacious interiors tend to be on a "plainer side") although yes this glittering scene was to continue in the cathedrals to come as I headed further north through Central America. And likely being also a cathedral steeped in the history of the country, its "somewhat different" appearances in like 3 different periods along the country's timeline are featured on postcards (the 3 postcards that I got later from a souvenir market nearby).
Located at like the "downtown core" of the city (quite a bustling area actually with big crowds & narrow streets), there's like a nice "diagonal view" of the Cathedral from the plaza right in front (although not a very great frontal view somewhat obscured by trees on the plaza), and just about a 5-minute walk after heading out from the plaza along the "pedestrian street" on the west side (the far side across the plaza from this cathedral) is Palacio Nacional with like a national museum inside (kind of a combo museum of "history & art" but really just not much of displays to see); and also just at about halfway along that "pedestrian street" (with various shops & food places along both sides) followed by a right turn onto another similar street and after a short walk to the end is Iglesia de Dolores (with not much inside but a nice church with kind of a "pleasant atmosphere" for a quick walk around) and where right outside that church along one side of its own plaza is a nice "souvenir market" (where I got those historic cathedral postcards as mentioned above along with also some nice keychains of the city & the country).Written November 10, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

It is a bustling hub of people and there are food and drink stalls as well as vendors of other items such as clothes. It is a good place to people watch, just keep your guard up though and be discrete with your phone as phones are the number 1 target for thieves in Tegus.Written March 11, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Myo MCoquitlam, Canada27,395 contributionsNot much is there to see inside this church, but there's just somehow an "atmosphere of pleasantness" likely due to its good floor layout for kind of a spacious walk around it (although not a particularly big interior) and also yes in part due to some lovely shrines featuring colorful sculptures & such. But actually more than the church itself, I would say that the "better parts" of the visit here are to the plaza right outside (a "fairly spacious" one with also some interesting outdoor display of a pair of statues one of which a sword-wielding angel standing over that of an evil-doer or such) and also to the indoor market along one side of the plaza (a great place for just all varieties of souvenir of Honduras from "quite a number" of small shops inside).
Located at like the "downtown core" of the city (an area with narrow streets some of which not for vehicles but just for pedestrians lined with shops on both sides), just within a 5-minute walk from this church by first heading out across the plaza to the intersecting street just a block away then to the left for a short walk is another "bigger plaza" which is Parque Central with the city's "main cathedral" Catedral de San Miguel on the far side of that plaza with also a number of trees providing shade right in front of the cathedral (with a beautiful facade of pillars & statues and a "golden beauty" of the main altar & some big shrines near the altar). And also just within a 5-minute walk from this church but in the "opposite direction" from going to the cathedral is the "long building" which is Palacio Nacional with a museum inside (one like a national museum which is kind of a combo one of "history & art" but with not very much of displays to see on its 2 levels).Written November 12, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

There is no shade at all at the top, but there are a small number of vendors selling snacks and drinks. Good for a nice safe stroll too.Written April 14, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- John James DLa Ceiba, Honduras301 contributionsI have been here regularly over the years. The building dates back to colonial times and has a lot of character. I have found great art exhibitions here over the year. Well worth your time to visit if you like to learn about local history and see some good art!Written October 28, 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- bucketlisttravellersSydney, Australia3,635 contributionsThis is a beautiful plaza in the middle of old town. There is a striking statue of St Michael Archangel in the square, the oldest church in Honduras at the end of the square and a marketplace nearby.Written March 11, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
